Worker or contractor?

Many courier companies hire contract workers to fill a number office positions. For example, a delivery company may hire drivers, office assistants and marketing personnel on a contract project basis (you hire someone to update your website), or to help during busy times (you contract a few extra drivers during the holidays.)

But some companies just prefer hiring part-time employees, or temp workers (people who work a certain amount of hours per week and are hourly. These workers typically don’t work over 30 hours a week.)

What type of employee does your company prefer hiring? Is there a reason why you prefer hiring part-time workers rather than contractors? We’re covering this topic in our upcoming September/October issue, and want to get the conversation started early.
